Microsoft is aware of the time zone change for the Metlakatla community in Alaska, USA. The citizens of Metlakatla have decided not to adopt daylight savings time zone. Metlakatla moved to UTC-08:00 permanently from November 4 th , 2018. We don’t plan to release a data update for this change.
Our official policy statement can be found at http://microsoft.com/time .
The customers from Metlakatla, Alaska will remain on Alaska Standard Time (UTC-9) if they don’t switch their time zone hence we recommend them to permanently switch to time zone “(UTC-08:00) Coordinated Universal Time-08” as soon as possible. Selecting this time zone will reflect the correct current local time.
